Hi! Something roughly between 1.5-2 inches or 4-6 cm is ideal.

Hi! Thanks for the question. The number of frictions on the front of the body in this harness means it’s not a good candidate for horizontal face down suspension. You could instead try this hip harness: Hip Loader Tutorial | Shibari Study

3) are positional factors at play here? If you’re lifting the hips too low the thigh cuffs will slide into the groin. And if you’re over-loading the hips (lifting them too high relative to the rest of the body) rather than distributing load throughout the upper body harness and ankles, that could also be a problem.4) What is your order of operations for suspension? For a face down, ideally we’ll load the upper body and then take up both legs via ankle or thigh cuffs. Then a suspension line from the hips to the point can be added for additional support. If you’re loading the hips before the ankle and/or thigh, then that will be very uncomfortable.

Thanks for your question! There could be a variety of contributing factors at play here. A few things to lab:1) does it help to move the inner thigh wrap just slightly down from the groin? You don’t want to move it too far down, as it won’t stay in place, but just about two fingers down from the actual groin area, right where the thigh starts to become fleshy and the tendon is less exposed.2) are you loading appropriately? As in- for a facedown are you using a long epsilon off of both thigh cuffs? This is the correct loading for a facedown, not from the main friction at the waist.
